We had a great relaxing week at Carolina Beach - first time to these beaches. We enjoyed the beach (easy 5 minute walk from the house), state park, other nearby beaches, quick day trips to Wilmington and the aquarium!
The beds were comfortable and the house was a good size for our family of four. I wouldn’t go much over that unless kids are smaller.
There were a couple cleaning issues that were handled immediately and communication was great during the stay.
I would echo another review - there is a house being built across the street though the rental company said they had no idea before booking.
The kitchen was sufficiently stocked with most anything we looked for. There are bikes and chairs, but not all were usable (2 chairs and 3 out of the 8 bikes were rideable). It is a perfect place for bikes or a golf cart. We did drive down to the amusement area for a specific restaurant, but turned around when parking was $30 or $44. We took a $6 Uber ride instead.
Overall, I’d recommend this house and location in general.
